I just received my Essie "Matte About You" Finisher the other day and I LOVE IT. I've always loved the Matte look and I was dying to try it out on all my polishes. I was a little scared when buying it because I had seen the comments saying it would chip faster or that the Matte wouldn't last more than a day or two. But I am here to say that it does last. I'm pretty active all day, a very "hands on" person and I haven't had any chipping. Another thing I was worried about was the polishes affect on "shimmery" polishes. Well, it works on those too! I've also tried this finisher on the brands "Sally Hansen" and "N.Y. Colors" nail polishes. It works great on both. :) I hope this helped! It is definitely a fun product.

Applies ok, brush is a bit small but ok. Great matte effect! Dries very fast - amazing! The only problem is if you don't paint nails every 5 days I can see that it breaks. Doesn't have to chip but it breaks and that doesn't look nice.
